Takahashi is 80 years old, with the American chapter of his- life 65| years behind him. When 14, he served as an_indentured worker in California, chafing at his lot and such tasks as driving the cows' home for milking. “But,” he explained, unhappw as I was at the time, I know that T laid the foundation then for the vigorous health which has carried | me through a long life.” | Takahashi was born of obscure | parents in Tokyo in 1854. When he was 13, he and another boy were chosen by the elders of their clan to go to the United States to learn the language and customs of thel strange “barbarians” then knocking at Japan’'s door. Bound for Three Years ‘When the boys arrived in San Francisco, the American to whom they had been sent, arranged for them to enter the home of an Oak- land friend under a form of term- labor contract then much used in California. They were bound for three years. But Takahashi was such an unruly servant that his employer was glad to release hlm after nine' months. Returning to Japan, Takahashi taught school, got into government service and rose to be minister of finance, which post he held in six cabinets. In 1921-22 he was prime mihister. Count Kaneko, now 81, and one|! of tthe seniors of the privy coun- cil; was graduated in law from Harvard in 1878. At Cambridge he began a close, friendly relation with America and Americans that survived half a century, making him an interpreter to his country- men of the United States and its ldeals, Adnyred Roosevelt At the close of the Russo-Jap- anese war in 1905, after he had held two cebinet posts, Kaneko was appointed to the delegation that negotiatéd peace with Russia at ¢ Foricmount. During That: stay in America, he formed an attach- ment with, and vast admiration for, Presilon! Theodore Roosevelt. Back in Jupan, ha wrote frequent- ly of his talks with T. R. and in- sisted that the President then (1905-07) approve Japan's assump- tion of the . hegemony of the Ori- ent. When the American-Japan so- ciety was formed in Tokyo 15 years ago, he became its president. But in 1924, when Congress passec laws excluding Japanese immi- grants, Kaneko, his national pride deeply offended, resigned the presi- dency of this society. Of a later generation, - Yosuke Matsuoka sought his schooling in Califernia high schools and the University of Oregon in the nine- ties. He received a law degree from Oregon in 1900 and came home to carve out a career in di- plomacy. But command «of fluent, idomatic English and brilliance were not sufficient to overcome the handicap of ‘mot having been graduated from the nest of fledg- ling diplomats, the Imperial Uni- versity of Tokyo. He was an out- sider, advancement was slow and he resigned from the service. A combination of business and politics called him, He became vice president of the great South Man- churian railway and a member. of the house of representatives. His eloquence and knowledge of Man- churian - history gave him his big, chance in 1932 when Japan needed a fluent pleader to argue her case in respect to Manchoukuo before the League. Matsuoka was chosen, made a brilliant defense and when the oth- er nations voted to censure Japan in spite of him, he led his delega- tion from the hall and Japan from the league. Back home, he took up a new political task, placing himself at the head of a fascisi-like move- ment for national regeneration through abolition of all political parties. The movement has not flourished; Matsuoka is;still a one- man party. Friend of President Theodore Roosevelt and graduate of the Harvard Law School, Count Kentaro Kaneko (left) suffered a jolt to his amicable relations with America when Congress voted in 1924 to exclude his countrymen. Korekiyo Takahashi, who went to California as a bey of 14 serving as an indentured worker, has been Finance Minister in six Cabinets and once held the post of Prime Minister of Japan.
